Why don't I see the same posts when browsing a community from 2 different instances? (lemmy.ml)

Hello,

If I open: https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] and https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy_support in 2 different tabs, I don't see the same posts at all, even with the same sorting option selected.

Is it just because the servers are overloaded and there is some delay in the synchronization?

Thanks for your help trying to understanding the fediverse inner working.

This has probably something to do with the fact that content is pulled only after users subscribe from another instance, etc

Yup, this. I can't find a link to explain it, but when you subscribe to a community that your server hasn't seen before, only the latest 20 posts/comments are pulled in.
